Dartmouth faculty just voted to censure President Beilock, 183 to 163, for her use of tactical police and a SWAT unit to violently break up the peaceful Gaza solidarity encampment 2 hours after it was set up. As Prof. Melanie Benson Taylor said, “Everything you claim to have prevented, you created.”
Thanks for this news.
Prof. Jodi Kim and I met with the Asian American student protesters doxxed and harassed since their arrest and brought their concerns to the meeting in our remarks. I hope this vote can underline the need for accountability and healing. I’m grateful for my AAUP and FSJP Dartmouth colleagues today.
She led Barnard directly before Dartmouth...
Why was the vote even close??
That’s a surprisingly close vote? Is there a pro-SWAT Hanover constituency?
